What's in Store for CNX Resources (CNX) in Q1 Earnings?
Read MoreHide Full Article
CNX Resources Corporation (CNX - Free Report) is scheduled to release first-quarter 2024 results on Apr 25, before market open. The company delivered an earnings surprise of 151.9% in the last reported quarter.
Let’s discuss the factors that are likely to be reflected in the upcoming quarterly results.
Factors to Consider
CNX Resources’ free cash flow generation and utilization of the same are likely to have helped repurchase shares and reduce debts in the first quarter. The systematic buybacks during the quarter are expected to have boosted the bottom line. Ongoing debt reduction is likely to have resulted in decreased interest expenses and improved bottom line in the to-be-reported quarter.
The company’s bottom line is expected to have benefited from its decision to accommodate the continued lower outlook for near-term natural gas prices, reduce production volumes and delay completion activities at Marcellus Shale pads. This strategic move of the company should allow it to avoid incremental natural gas volumes in the currently oversupplied market.
However, low natural gas prices throughout the first quarter are expected to have negatively impacted CNX’s performance in the to-be-reported quarter.
Q1 Expectations
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for first-quarter earnings is pegged at 36 cents per share, indicating a year-over-year decrease of 35.7%. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pinned at $420.85 million, indicating a year-over-year increase of 6.5%.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for total production volumes is pegged at 142 billion cubic feet equivalent, up 4.4% year over year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for average gas sales price is pinned at $2 per thousand cubic feet equivalent, down 33.3% year over year. The consensus mark for average sales price of NGL is pegged at $19 per barrel, down 29.6% from that registered in the year-ago quarter. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the average sales price of Oil/Condensate is pinned at $62 per barrel, down 7.5% from the year-ago quarter’s figure.
